I have to admit that I kinda of like the idea of a prank design pattern...
I seem to recall upgrading from Win3.1 to 95 back in the day, and it displayed a message saying something along the lines of "Warning: About to format hard disk. Press Cancel to abort", and the cancel button kept moving away from the cursor as you moved towards clicking it.

Yeah I thought it was pretty funny. Much better than the typical "close this if you hate saving money" copy…

Eff that.
What? Where?
I think they removed it.
Oh, screw this. Screw this to heck.
Oh my...
